Hotline Feature – Abrar Al-Heeti: Samsung’s $3,000 Trifold, Apple Foldable Rumors, and In-Flight Wi-Fi Expectations
Abrar Al-Heeti joins Dave Weekley on Hotline to break down one of the most talked-about gadgets of the year — Samsung’s $3,000 Galaxy Z Trifold. Abrar explains how she managed to secure one of the extremely limited devices, what it’s like to actually live with a phone that unfolds into a tablet, and why the technology already feels surprisingly “normal.” The discussion covers sticker shock (including taxes and fees), durability anxiety, battery expectations, and whether the trifold could finally replace tablets. The segment also dives into Apple’s rumored foldable iPhone plans, a $2.4 million Apple memorabilia auction, and why in-flight Wi-Fi has become an expectation rather than a luxury for modern travelers.
